Differential expression of genes in salivary glands of male Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus in response to infection with Anaplasma marginale
(BioMed Central, 2010-03-18)
Background: Bovine anaplasmosis, caused by the rickettsial tick-borne pathogen Anaplasma marginale (Rickettsiales: Anaplasmataceae), is vectored by Rhipicephalus (Boophilus)microplus in many tropical and subtropical regions ...
Comparative proteomics reveals differences in host-pathogen interaction between infectious and commensal relationship with Campylobacter jejuni
(Frontiers Media, 2017-04-26)
Campylobacter jejuni is the leading food-borne poisoning in industrialized countries. While the bacteria causes disease in humans, it merely colonizes the gut in poultry or pigs, where seems to establish a commensal ...
Sequence analysis of the msp4 gene of Anaplasma phagocytophilum strains
(American Society for Microbiology, 2005-03)
The causative agent of human granulocytic ehrlichiosis was recently reclassified as Anaplasma phagocytophilum, unifying previously described bacteria that cause disease in humans, horses, dogs, and ruminants. For the ...
Host distribution does not limit the range of the tick Ixodes ricinus but impacts the circulation of transmitted pathogens
(Frontiers Media, 2017-10-11)
Ticks, pathogens, and vertebrates interact in a background of environmental features that regulate the densities of ticks and vertebrates, affecting their contact rates and thence the circulation of the pathogens. Regional ...
Characterization of Anaplasma marginale isolated from North American bison
(American Society for Microbiology, 2003-08)
Anaplasma marginale (Rickettsiales: Anaplasmataceae), a tick-borne pathogen of cattle, is endemic in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. Although serologic tests have identified American bison, Bison bison, as ...
Tick vaccines and the control of tick-borne pathogens
(Frontiers Media, 2013-07-09)
Ticks are obligate hematophagous ectoparasites that transmit a wide variety of pathogens to humans and animals. The incidence of tick-borne diseases has increased worldwide in both humans and domestic animals over the past ...
Factors driving the abundance of Ixodes ricinus ticks and the prevalence of zoonotic I. ricinus-borne pathogens in natural foci
(American Society for Microbiology, 2012-04-15)
Environmental factors may drive tick ecology and therefore tick-borne pathogen (TBP) epidemiology, which determines the risk to animals and humans of becoming infected by TBPs. For this reason, the aim of this study was ...
